Port William, Church Street, LibraryLibrary (18th Century) · 700 ydExplorer Tom Port William’s library thinks the road leading to it is a bit of a show-off, always trying to get attention. This 18th-century gem just wants quiet dignity, but the traffic keeps honking like an impatient cat. Walk past slowly like you're in a film with a really good soundtrack.
Port William Harbour, North PierPier · 928 yd
Port William, Main Street, HarbourHarbour (19th Century) · 929 ydExplorer Tom Port William Main Street Harbour would tell you in a job interview that it has strong leadership skills and a knack for holding boats still. It’s been sitting there since the 1800s, watching the water move while it stays stubbornly rooted to the spot. Ideal for a moody photo you’ll pretend wasn’t posed for the camera.
Mary: Port William Harbour Entrance, Luce Bay, Solway FirthSloop (19th Century) · 955 yd
Port William Harbour, South Pier, LightBeacon · 964 ydExplorer Tom High Clone thinks tourists from Dublin are all just very confused actors who forgot their lines and ended up in the wrong country by accident. It’s a settlement with an unassigned period, which means it’s been around long enough to be tired of everyone asking it when it was built. The name sounds like a sneeze that got stuck halfway through

Myrton CastleCastle (medieval), Motte (medieval) · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Myrton Castle in Dumfries and Galloway is sitting on a motte that looks like someone dumped a hill of dirt and said, 'Yeah, this is it.' It’s got that medieval castle vibe but feels more like a very serious rock pile that’s waiting for you to write a bad poem about it. The whole place is just going, 'Make it rhyme,' while the wind tries to blow your voice away. H
Court Hill PlantationForest · 2.5 mi
Old Place of MonreithTower House (medieval) · 2.8 miExplorer Tom Old Place of Monreith is having a major identity crisis because it’s not sure if it’s a tower house or just a very tall, very old fence post. Its least favourite visitor is definitely anyone who wears sandals, because the mud here has a personal grudge against footwear. It stands there with the dignity of something that knows you’re late for dinner. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket
